How to Empathize with Someone [Story]

A married couple went to the hospital to deliver their baby.



Upon arrival,


The doctor mentioned inventing a machine that would transfer some of the mother’s labor pain to the father.


He offered the couple to test it.


They were open to it.





He set the pain transfer level to 10%


Explaining that 10% was more pain than most men have experienced.



However, as the labor progressed,



The husband felt fine.



The doctor cranked it up a notch.



The doctor adjusted 20%.



The husband was still feeling normal.



They checked his blood pressure and he was doing astoundingly well.



They decided to go 50%.



He still felt great.



Since this obviously helped,



He insisted transferring ALL the pain.



They delivered a healthy baby, painlessly.



The couple was ecstatic.



When they got home, the mailman was lying dead on their porch.
